Adaptive makeup transfer via bat algorithm

Abstract

With the advent of the artificial intelligence (AI) era, the beauty camera is widely used, and makeup transfer has attracted increasing attention. In this paper, we propose an adaptive makeup transfer based on the bat algorithm to solve the problem that only a single makeup effect can be transferred. According to the characteristics of makeup style, the algorithm optimizes the weight value to get the appropriate makeup lightness by using the adaptive method. The improved algorithm can not only help to get the optimal weight values in the process of transferring the same makeup style to different targets, but also to transfer different makeup styles to the same target. Moreover, this algorithm can choose the most suitable makeup style and also the most appropriate lightness for a certain person. Experimental results show that the algorithm proposed in the paper has a better effect than the existing algorithm of makeup transfer, and the algorithm can provide users with a suitable makeup style and appropriate lightness.
